talking to you today about boy it’s a
form of juggling that were terminated
that originated in New Zealand for the
meat from the merit a people men and
women used to do it for flexibility for
strength and exercise and I just saw it
once before when I was in a France
someone was just spitting fire in a
courtyard and then I saw it again on a
beach people were dancing and fire
twirling and I just I want to know what
that was and I just fell in love with it
so then I just started learning it
myself me I practiced the staff I use
these filipino Escrima sticks to
practice with it and practice techniques
for spinning and yeah so you want to you
just want to kind of get comfortable
just twirling before you’re actually
gonna you know practice with fire when
you want to start practicing with fire
you want to start fire twirling is what
you need is a bucket a bucket of water a
fire extinguish a fire extinguisher damp
towel would be good and of course well
you should have someone to make sure
that you’re that you’re okay so a
spotter to watch and make sure
